Dear Salem Historical Commission,
Re:Your Notice of Violation, 13 September,2017
Please be advised that the current owner of 266 Lafayette Street,Paul deNapoli,did not
purchase the property in question until late February 2017. We're confident that City
records will confirm the timing. Below please find several photographs from the property
brochure given to Mr.deNapoli during his initial inspection by the listing agent in
December of 2016. All of the exterior shots clearly show a dark grey paint color,as
opposed to the original mustard yellow. We can only assume that the previous owner
repainted the building(#266 only)on her own volition without prior approval from your
Commission. Having said that the colors she selected suit the building,and are listed in the
"historic"section at Water's&Brown's.
As such we would ask the Commission to retroactively approve the existing color scheme
on#266 Lafayette Street. Further more,the even more recent owners of the adjacent and
attached property,#268,Matthew and Jamuna Reppert,would similarly request approval
to repaint their side of the structure in the identical color scheme so as to provide a tasteful
and cohesive appearance to the property.
Those colors are,specifically,Benjamin Moore"Grey",code:2121-10 as the primary gun-
metal grey/blue color,and C2 paint's"Ecru",code C2-143W,a light beige secondary color
for the trim.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter.
Respectively,
Paul F.deNapoli Matthew Reppert Jamuna Reppert
